We are pleased to announce that an epoch-making corpus-browsing 
tool, NLB (NINJAL-Lago Word Profiler for the Balanced Corpus of 
Contemporary Written Japanese), has just been launched and is 
available on NINJAL's website:

http://ninjal-lwp-bccwj.ninjal.ac.jp/

NLB, jointly developed by NINJAL and Lago Insititute for Language,
uses the technique of lexical profiling and allows the user to
profile, without much knowledge of computers, the collocational and
grammatical behaviour of the Japanese nouns, verbs, adjectives, and
adverbs included in NINJAL's Balanced Corpus of Contemporary 
Written Japanese (BCCWJ). 

Access is free of charge for academic and educational use. For
commercial use, please consult us beforehand at:

nlb at ninjal.ac.jp

Your feedback is always welcomed and appreciated. For general
comments, suggestions and questions, email us at:

nlb at ninjal.ac.jp.

For technical ones at:

nlb-tech at ninjal.ac.jp.

Enjoy browsing the BCCWJ corpus using NLB!!!
